Answer:

X = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5

x + 2x - 60 = -30

Collect like terms

3x - 60 = -30

Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

3x = -30 + 60

Calculate the sum

3x = 30

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

x = 10

Solution

x = 10

1/5x + 2/5x = 6     Combine like terms on the left side

3/5x = 6         Divide both sides by 3/5

x =  10

Explain the difference between buying and leasing and automobile.
sashaice [31]
When you buy a car you have all the money upfront ready either in cash, check, etc. Leasing is when you have a little bit or most of the money. Because you dont have all of it you pay for the car monthly and pay a little bit more than the actual value of the car as interest for "borrowing" their money since you couldn't afford the entire value of the car upfront. The more money you put down at the time of leasing, the less the interest usually is.
